VEGETABLE s-Nearly go boxes of Aspara-
gus arrived to-day, causing further break in
values, while not cleaning up the market at the

liberal in supply for immediate wants. Rhu-

HONEY-For strictly choice qualities the mar
ket shows firm tone, though the demand is not
pressing. Of AIDES grades are hard to sell at
low figures. We quote Comb. 12ts14c q u for
choice and Ga Sc for common; bright extracted,
41SG5c-
BuTTER-Although there is still a fair ship
ping demand from northern ana territorial
points the tone of the market is OF more easy
character. Green feed IS getting in excellent
condition. and is enabling dairies generally to
produce more butter. Warmer weather north
and in the Territories viii soon give these out
side localities better home supply. With
larger receipts and decreased shipping demand,
the market must naturally soften. Lower prices
in the near future are not, Therefore, improb

CHEESE-Market weak st lower prices. Il is
said that some Cheese is being shipped in from
able and there is also much otherwise poor
Cheese offering both California and Eastern.
Inferior stock is being offered at very low fig-
ures and moving quite slowly Quotsble at 1lt9
I4c 2 h for choice and S;dl0c for poor quality.
EGGS-lh he market is in very bad shape for
sellers. Supplies are large, and dealers are
pressing sales. From l3c to 15c dozen is the
full range tor California. 1t must be choice pro-
duct to bring the higher figure, even by the sin
gle box. Eastern are quotable at 13gl4c 2
dozen.
while the market is heavily stocked As a con-
sequence prices show steadiness. We quote
